Figure 6

Postulated septin evolution. Summary phylogeny of 31 species used in this study. This tree summarizes the evolution of the septins in the 31 organisms whose septins were identified and used in this study [50–53]. Red branches indicate animal lineages and green branches indicate fungal lineages. The table on the right of the tree indicates different groups of septin genes. Group 1 is red, group 2 is orange, group 3 is yellow, group 4 is green, and group 5 is blue. A triangle means the complete genome sequence was not available when the initial search was executed, so some septins might not have been identified due to incomplete sequence information.
